If you love to “try out” new stitch patterns, then Audition is a KAL you won’t want to miss! This generously sized asymmetrical shawl debuts four unique stitch patterns. Each pattern features interesting stitches along with improved ways to execute old standards.
The shawl is knit using the lovely shades of Simplicity Spray by HiKoo and is paired with two skeins of solid HiKoo Simplicity. (Both of these solid skeins MUST be the same color). Simplicity Spray is wound in huge 200 gram cakes and dyed with a brand new technique for an exceptional color palette.
While the shawl design is a mystery, it is no secret that video tutorials and daily support are available all throughout the knit along.
This will be my last KAL for now as I take a sabbatical to spend time with my ever-expanding family. Have no worries! While I am globetrotting and rocking babies, my website and videos will remain in place to assist you. I will continue to monitor the Knit Purl Hunter group on Ravelry where I’ve made many new friends.
I can’t wait to share the yarn, stitches and good times together!
